Patent EP-0392952-A1 (EP)
Inventor: JOLIVET JEAN-MARC
IPC: B22D11/04
Filed: 1990-03-20
Abstract: According to the method in accordance with the invention, for the continuous casting of thin metallic products, the molten metal is cast into an ingot mould whose walls define a casting space 7 of elongated transverse section and the thickness of the product emerging from the ingot mould is reduced, while the core thereof is still unsolidified, to the thickness desired for the said thin metallic product. According to the invention, the cast metal is caused to solidify on the surface in the ingot mould so that the solidified skin of the product emerging from the ingot mould forms, on each edge, a solidified wall of rounded transverse section containing the still unsolidified metal, and the reduction in thickness is effected so that the said rounded solidified wall progressively folds over on itself. In order to form the said wall of rounded section, the ends 9 of the said section of the casting space are rounded in a convex shape. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A disposable syringe cylinder (60) and a medical paste injector (110) into which the cylinder (60) may be easily inserted. The cylinder (60) is prefilled by the supplier with a medical paste. A flexible piston (78) having a flat proximal surface is inserted by the supplier into the proximal end of the cylinder (60). The piston (78) serves as a seal between the paste and the outer environment. Proximal-to-distal force applied on the piston (78) by the injector (110) propels paste from the cylinder (60). The direction of travel of the flexible piston (78) is only proximal-to-distal, and the disposable syringe cylinder (60) is discarded when empty. The injector (110) includes an injector pump which is manually actuated by a pistol grip. A highly precise ratchet mechanism, along with an accurately positioned stop on the travel of the pistol grip, permits the attending medical personnel to deliver the exact volume of paste required.

Abstract: Un système d'imagerie à infra-rouge comprend un télescope de grossissement fixe, un scanner à angle variable à deux axes, une pluralité de détecteurs à infra-rouge de tailles différentes positionnés dans le plan focal du scanner, un sélecteur pour choisir un signal de sortie fourni par l'un des détecteurs, et un affichage de balayage récurrent. Un seul détecteur est associé à un champ de vision désiré, la taille du détecteur étant choisie pour obtenir la résolution désirée. Pour diminuer le champ de vision englobé par le système d'imagerie, et par conséquent pour grossir la scène présentée sur l'affichage, un angle de balayage plus petit et un détecteur plus petit sont sélectionnés simultanément. Un circuit de normalisation de largeur de bande et de gain est utilisé optionnellement pour normaliser les signaux électriques sortant des divers détecteurs. Cet agencement permet de réduire le champ de vision avec un changement simultané dans le champ de vision instantané, de sorte que la résolution d'une image dans l'affichage augmente en conséquence. Un objet focalisé dans l'affichage demeure focalisé lorsque le champ de vision est changé, de sorte que l'observateur ne perd pas trace des objets qui doivent être suivis de près. Le système est petit, mécaniquement simple, léger et solide et peut être rangé dans un étui ayant approximativement la même taille et le même poids que des jumelles.

Title: Logical track write scheduling system for a parallel disk drive array data storage subsystem.
Inventor: MILLIGAN CHARLES ALLEN
IPC: G06F11/20
Filed: 1991-04-05
Abstract: The parallel disk drive array data storage subsystem maps between virtual and physical data storage devices and schedules the writing of data to these devices. The data storage subsytem functions as a conventional large form factor disk drive memory, using an array of redundancy groups, each containing N+M disk drives. A performance improvement is obtained by eliminating redundancy data updates in the redundancy group by writing modified virtual track instances into previously emptied logical tracks and marking the data contained in the previous virtual track instance location as invalid. Logical cylinders containing a mixture of valid and invalid virtual tracks are emptied by writing all the valid virtual tracks into a previously emptied logical cylinder as a background process.
